BE FRUITFUL 2

Text: Genesis 9:1.

And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.

Fruits are not only pleasant to the eyes, they are nutritional to the body. In the same way, any life that is bearing fruit will not only be pleasant to the people around him, he or she will bring health to those who eat thereof.

Once your life starts producing the God-kind of fruit, don't expect that every one around you will sing your praise, rather your fruit will attract all kinds of people towards you and this comes with its challenges.

There is a very big Mango tree next to my building. It's in an unfenced piece of land. This tree produces a lot of fruit. You can't walk past it without noticing how very fruitful this tree is.

This tree attracted lots of people to itself because of its very many fruit. Some people come so very early in the morning (while we are still sleeping) to pluck mangoes from this tree. All through the day, this tree hardly get any rest. Yet at night, some individuals are still plucking mangoes. God used this tree to teach us a lot of lessons.

1) Your life will always attract people to you once you start bearing fruit. This will encroach on your privacy, time,  resources and personal space.

2.) You will hardly have a closing time. People who need your fruit of love, Godly counsel, prayers, skills and stuffs like that will demand it from you even at awkward times.

3.) One striking thing about the people that went seeking Mango from this tree is, they hardly pluck the fruit gently, rather, they threw all sort of things at the tree and not once will the tree complain.

Because of the fruit of Peace, gentleness, meekness, patience and the likes that your life is bearing, people will throw all sort of things at you.

Just like the mango tree, you should never complain. Know that hungry people, angry people, lonely people, poor people and the likes are part of those seeking to pluck fruit from your life. Instead of getting angry, you should let your life release Godly fruit to all around you.

 *BIBLE READING* 

Matthew 7:16-20.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

1. Father God, I receive the grace to obey your words that my life may produce good fruit in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

TIME IN ETERNITY

Text : Psalms 90:12  So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom._  Our God dwells in eternity past, present and future. In between these phases of eternity, He created man to dwell in Time. When man sinned, he fell short of God's plan, and death came in.(Rom 3:23). Death therefore short circuit man's life in eternity. This is the reason Jesus.came.  He had to come into TIME in order to remove the PAUSE  death HAD on man.  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.  Every man born into this world automatically becomes an eternal being. The question therefore is, which side of eternity would such a man dwell? Everlasting life or Everlasting condemnation? Time is an opportunity given to man to trade for eternal life. You have limited time to exchange for eternal life in eternity.  Time offers you the opportunity to ga...
